dextro and levo are two prefixes.

The prefix levo comes from the Latin word laevo. It means "on the left side" or "to the left." We see these terms when we talk about chiral molecules rotating the plane of polarized light. ... If the plane of polarized light is rotated counterclockwise (to the left), the molecule is levorotatory

dextro is the reciprocal of levo . it rotates right side the plane of polarized light.
